<p>[QUOTE=&quot;LA_Geezer, post: 3458750, member: 89393&quot;]I paid for some groceries with part of the bill satisfied with a little over $2 in nickels. I apologized to the cashier—a nice young lady in her early twenties—by saying that I was a coin collector and these were what was left after poring over a couple of rolls from the bank. She said that was OK, then pulled a 1935 quarter out of the spare bin in the till saying that someone gave this as part of their payment earlier in her shift. She began to tell me that if I didn&#039;t know, this one was from when our coins were made of silver. I acknowledged that and congratulated her, born perhaps thirty years after that coin was struck, and hoped she would get others along the way.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
